Best Face Photo of 2010 | I Heart Faces

Personal

3 Jan

As a part of my goals for 2011, I will be participating more in the challenges set before me– any one with a camera actually– by I Heart Faces. This week’s photo challenge is entitled “Best Face Photo of 2010” to which I had to pick this face. Yes, it is my son. Every time I see his face, I’m flooded with so many emotions, as any mother would and should be. How could I not have been drawn to pick one of his MANY photos I took throughout 2010. The best part is, this is the first time some of you are seeing this photo unless you received our Christmas card this year. Here he is, little man at 17 months old (Nov. 2010). Because I can only put one with this post, I will have another post to follow with more from his 17 month session. Happy 2011!

Stay in the know!

These fellas had a heckuva start to their fishing
These fellas had a heckuva start to their fishing tournament season this past Saturday. ๐Ÿ˜… First, their typical boat captain was under the weather, so had to play switch-a-roo on boat *and* captain. Then, about 11am during the tournament the boat they were in broke down, leaving them only the section of the lake they could access with the trolling motor. Thankfully, a fellow team boat captain (and our church pastor!) was able to return his anglers to weigh-in, then make the run across the lake to snatch up these two fellas and get them to the dock in time for weigh-in. SHEW Yโ€™ALL! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ They still managed 4 of the 5 fish limit with 10.04 lbs. ๐Ÿ™Œ

Last weekend we spontaneously took off and made way to Gettysburg, PA! Gus absolutely LOVES history and has been wanting to do this trip for a while. We knew we better fit it in before heโ€™s too much older, and it was one of the only weekends we had open. ๐Ÿคช On the way, we stopped in Lexington, VA as well to visit some cemeteries he had researched. We saw the memorial for General Stonewall Jackson and also the museum and mausoleum at Washington and Lee University where General Robert E. Lee and family were laid to rest. 

Once we made it to Gettysburg we spent 1.5 days exploring the area. We spent most of our time at the National Military Battlefield and Museum. 

On the way home, we also stopped by Antietam Battlefield and Appomattox Court House National Historic Park. 

We basically hit the road with only the goals of making it to Lexington and Gettysburg. All the rest fell into place as we drove and researched. ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜… We found some AWESOME AirBnBโ€™s doing it that way, though!!! Near Lexington, we found the coolest glamping/tent situation nestled on a 100acre organic farm and animal rescue. And while in Gettysburg, a barn apartment! Both were 5 โญ๏ธ!!!

These boys placed 10th out of 81 boats last year!!
These boys placed 10th out of 81 boats last year!!! They also do not have a bass boat nor forward-facing sonar technology like a lot of them fish with, but they still pulled in fish and made it count! They practiced hard, researched, and learned how to lead in their own ways, with each other, in the boat.

We are entering the 2nd year that Providence Athletic Club (PAC) has had a fishing team, so itโ€™s in its developmental years. PACโ€™s mission and purpose is to provide competitive level sports opportunities in the Columbia, SC area for home-educated athletes (grades 6-12), while developing both physically and spiritually in a Christian environment.

Each boat has to have a volunteer boat captain, who puts his/ her own time and money into boat insurance, fuel hauling the boat all over SC, and then also making sometimes 60 mile runs or more (round trip) in the boat once on the water. We would like to help raise some money to be able to pay these individuals back for their gas expense at least, so we are seeking sponsors for our anglers.

If anyone knows me, you know this is one of the things I hate to do the most- ask people for money. ๐Ÿ˜… But I also know not everyone is like me and people love to help, as well. ๐Ÿ’œ

The anglers also wear jerseys with sponsor logos, who contribute $200 or more, but any amount will be greatly appreciated. The jersey design will be much different this year than the one pictured, giving the sponsors more real estate on the jersey. So, with all that said, if you would like to sponsor these two fine, young men, please let me know. PAC also is a non-profit organization, so it can be a tax write-off.

Thanks for reading if you made it this far. ๐Ÿ˜ #bassfishing #southcarolina #sponsors #homeschool @basscatboats ๐Ÿ˜

๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ‰ Summer Photo Dump 6 ๐Ÿ‰๐ŸŒป

Mid-July we got the family together out on the river! We got all set up on a sandbar for the day, to be able to just chill- have a picnic and let the littles play their hearts out. Wellโ€ฆ that was our hopes at least. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿซ  About an hour later, ALLLLL the boats showed up (group of friends) and just beached it right where we were swimming with the kids. I will never understand thisโ€ฆ I am just of the mindset if you missed out on the sandbar, you missed out. Notโ€ฆ โ€œwell, weโ€™ll just squeeze right in here on top of yโ€™all.โ€ But whatever. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ AmIright? Is that not the unwritten, understood law of the river rats? ๐Ÿคฃ

Beach days
๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ‰ Summer Photo Dump 5 ๐Ÿ‰๐ŸŒป

Beach days are the best days!!! We were able to make 2 different day trips to the coast this summer. 

1. We are thankful for sweet friends who allow us to crash their family camping vacation for a day! ๐Ÿคฃ 

2. And we are thankful for another group who are willing to up and haul their families to the coast for a day, too! ๐Ÿค—
